贫困地区中小学是我国义务教育事业发展的“短板”。目前我国贫困地区中小学办学存在很多困难,制约着当地教育和经济的长远发展。改善贫困地区中小学办学条件,提高基础教育水平,对于促进教育公平和社会公正有着重大的意义。 Primary and secondary schools in poor areas are the “short board ” in the development of China’s compulsory education. At present, there are many difficulties in running primary and secondary schools in poor areas in our country, restricting the long-term development of local education and economy. Improving the conditions of primary and secondary schooling in poor areas and raising the level of basic education are of great significance to promoting fair education and social justice.
